Description
Product Overview
Right-hand exterior mirror for Citroën C5, primarily matching first-generation models from 2001 to 2004. This passenger-side mirror offers electric adjustment, electric folding, heated glass and an integrated temperature sensor for reliable defogging. The unit is finished in KPK (Mauritius Blue) and shows light paint peeling on the housing.
Key Features
- Electric Mirror Adjustment: Smooth motorized mirror positioning for precise visibility.
- Electric Folding: Power folding mechanism to protect the mirror when parked or in narrow spaces.
- Heated Glass: Built-in heating element accelerates de-icing and demisting.
- Temperature Sensor: Supports climate-related functions and improves defogging performance.
- Passenger Side (Right): Designed for the right-hand side of the vehicle.
- Colour: KPK – Mauritius Blue (light paint peeling noted).
Compatibility & Fitment
Intended for Citroën C5 (first generation) models produced from 2001 to 2004. Some later vehicles (including certain 2005 variants) may accept this mirror, but fitment can vary by production date, trim level and electrical harness. Always verify compatibility by comparing the part code (8149WJ, KPKD) with your vehicle documentation or VIN before ordering.
Installation Guidance
Typical replacement requires basic trim removal and electrical disconnection. Common installation steps:
- Remove the interior door trim or triangular trim cover to access the mirror mounting area.
- Disconnect the electrical connector for mirror adjustment/heating and any sensor wiring.
- Unscrew the mirror mounting bolts or nuts and support the mirror while removing.
- Fit the replacement mirror, secure mounting fasteners to original torque, reconnect wiring and test all functions (adjustment, folding, heating) before reassembling trim.
Common Causes Of Failure
Mirrors typically fail due to motor wear, water ingress causing electrical faults, corrosion of mounting points or wiring, and impact damage from collisions or knocks. Cosmetic issues such as paint peeling are frequently caused by prolonged exposure to the elements or previous repairs; these do not usually affect electrical function but may impact appearance.
